Yong Sul's Story

My name is Yong Sul Kim and I hope there can be a change in the internship crisis that we are currently experiencing.

I am currently a third year medical student studying at UNSW. I came to Australia with my family at the age of six, and therefore have lived in Australia for more than 15 years. I cannot imagine living anywhere else; I consider myself completely Australian and I love this country with all my heart. This is why I feel incredibly anxious and disheartened at the thought of not receiving an internship after graduation. Going back to South Korea is not an option as I have lost my Korean vocabulary and their culture.

My family and I belong here and I am completely committed in working here. I want to become a doctor to THIS country, a country with a culture that I have deeply integrated into. International students are frustrated that we are not given an equal opportunity to do this. I hope the government takes all of our concerns and frustrations into consideration in order to make a fair and just change towards this internship crisis.

Yong Sul is a 3rd year medical student from the University of New South Wales

Just like Yong Sul Kim, I hope that there can be a change that will be implemented in the system of University of New South Wales internship program. These students may not be Aussie, but they grew up there, and they should be given the internship program that they deserve. Besides, they really worked hard for such matter and all they are after from the program is an experience. I know that University of New South Wales will be considerate in a matter like this.
